Real Estate Feed Marketing

For real estate agents and marketers, RSS feeds are an easy way to keep updated automatically on websites you like. Instead of you having to frequently visit websites to see if they have a new listings or features, you can use web feeds to get them to tell you every time they have something new -- instantly!

I don't use RSS feeds for my Real Estate business. What are the benefits?

Web feeds provide an excellent method to directly reach your target audience and permits instant distribution of information to targeted prospects. It's an additional way to promote your business, send news, put your information on people's home pages, to create potentially higher search engine rankings, and keep in communication with your customers. It puts users in control to put your feed content directly into their MSN & Yahoo homepages.

How does RSS help my online marketing with search engines such as Yahoo! and MSN?

The best way to get your web feed included and spidered by Yahoo or MSN is to include the feed on a personal my.yahoo or my.msn home page. Simply create an account on one of the respective portals and customize your personal news page to include your RSS feed(s). Within 24-48 hours your RSS feed content will become part of their database and will be regularly "spidered" by Yahoo and MSN. When your site has RSS feeds, it gets indexed more frequently by search engines, which can help your search engine rankings.

I already have an email newsletter? Isn't that enough?

RSS is designed to complement your existing marketing efforts. E-mail filters and anti-spam legislation have lowered the effectiveness of e-mail marketing. On the average, 64.7% of the business e-mail you send is not even opened, let alone read.
